During a nuclear fission reaction,

A uniform magnetic field B exist in a region. An electron projected perpendicular to the field goes in a circle. Assuming Bohr's quantization rule for angular momentum, calculate (a) the smallest possible radius of the electron (b) the radius of the nth orbit and (c) the minimum possible speed of the electron.

Show that the minimum energy needed to separate a proton from a nucleus with Zprotons and N neutrons is `ΔE = (M_(Z-1,N) + M_B - M_(Z,N))c^2` 

where M_Z,N = mass of an atom with Z protons and N neutrons in the nucleus and M_B = mass of a hydrogen atom. This energy is known as proton-separation energy.

Consider the fusion in helium plasma. Find the temperature at which the average thermal energy 1.5 kT equals the Coulomb potential energy at 2 fm.

Calculate the Q-values of the following fusion reactions :-

(a) `""_1^2H + ""_1^2H → ""_1^3H + ""_1^1H`

(b) `""_1^2H + ""_1^2H → ""_2^3H + n`

(c) `""_1^2H + ""_1^3H → _2^4H + n`.

Atomic masses are `m(""_1^2H) = 2.014102 "u", m(""_1^3H) = 3.016049 "u", m(""_2^3He) = 3.016029 "u", m(""_2^4He) = 4.002603 "u".`

(Use Mass of proton m_p = 1.007276 u, Mass of `""_1^1"H"` atom = 1.007825 u, Mass of neutron m_n = 1.008665 u, Mass of electron = 0.0005486 u ≈ 511 keV/c²,1 u = 931 MeV/c².)

Answer the following question.
State Bohr's quantization condition of angular momentum. Calculate the shortest wavelength of the Bracket series and state to which part of the electromagnetic spectrum it belongs. 

Plot a graph showing the variation of de Broglie wavelength (X) associated with a charged a particle of mass m, versus  `1/sqrtV` where V is the potential difference through which the particle is accelerated. How does this graph give us information regarding the magnitude of the charge of the particle?

Write three points of differences between para-, dia- and ferromagnetic materials, giving one example for each. 

Answer the following question.
When an inductor is connected to a 200 V dc voltage, a current at 1A flows through it. When the same inductor is connected to a 200 V, 50 Hz ac source, only 0.5 A current flows. Explain, why? Also, calculate the self-inductance of the inductor.
